Good weather and favorable prices in international and regional markets increased real income from crops, allowing agricultural households to account for up to 79% of the poverty reduction during this period. Other key contributing factors included urbanization and education. However, the vulnerability of people falling back into poverty is very high; for every three Ugandans who get out of poverty, two fall back in, demonstrating fragile gains. Extreme poverty is concentrated in the north and east of the country, accounting for 84% of those living beneath the national poverty line.
